Famous quotes containing the words public and/or transport:

    There is no private life which has not been determined by a wider public life.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
